A jump box is a hardened system that provides secure access to isolated or sensitive devices on a separate network.

Breakdown of Options:

A. Jump box – ✅ Correct answer. Acts as a middle point for secure remote access.

B. API gateway – Used for managing API calls, not remote access to isolated devices.

C. Secure Shell (SSH) – Requires direct connectivity, which may not be available for an isolated device.

D. Clientless VPN – Allows web-based VPN access, but does not guarantee access to isolated devices.

Using a /30 subnet mask is the most efficient way to conserve IP space for a point-to-point connection between two routers. A /30 subnet provides four IP addresses, two of which can be assigned to the router interfaces, one for the network address, and one for the broadcast address. This makes it ideal for point-to-point links where only two usable IP addresses are needed.References: CompTIA Network+ study materials and subnetting principles.

A hot site is a fully operational backup facility with hardware, network, and data synchronization already in place. It allows for immediate failover in the event of a disaster, minimizing downtime.

B. DCI (Data Center Interconnect) connects data centers but doesn’t guarantee availability unless built redundantly.

C. Direct Connect refers to a private link to cloud providers, not disaster recovery.

D. Active-passive can help with failover but may involve delay unless combined with hot site principles.

A toner and probe tool, also known as a tone generator and probe, is used to trace and identify individual cables within a bundle or to locate the termination points of cables in wiring closets and patch panels. It generates a tone that can be picked up by the probe, helping technicians quickly and accurately identify and label wall plates and wiring. This is the best tool for identifying proper wiring in the Intermediate Distribution Frame (IDF). References: CompTIA Network+ Exam Objectives and official study guides.
